hoarse with fierce protests, and studs me

watching natures whims, but finds fresh
fuel for this gaseous glow in heaping

the dainty crest above the giebe, and

Women III journalism.

The woman who would become a
journalist must fit into the organization
wherever she is needed. She may be
asked to read articles and prepare them
for the printer, to condense q paper Of
5000 words into 1000 without omlttin
a point or weakening an argument, read
proof, hold copy for the proof-reader,
write advertising paragraphs, attend to
editorial correspondence, look after the
makeup OF the 'sforms." prepare adver-
tising circulars, review books, write
obituaries, report events, write head
lines, answer questions, look after the
exchanges, make clippings, compile artl-
cles, write editorials, or do Il nun
dred other things. If she earns . per
manent place she must do some OF these
things better than any other available
person, and before she rises to an cdlto-
rial position she ought to know how 10
do them all, and what is more know
when others are doing them right.
Journalism is by 40 means purely litera-
nv work, nor is it without its disadvant-
ages. The halo which surrounds 1t is
largely fictitious. Every department OF
the work has more or less drudgery con
nected with it; the editor-in-chief knows
what he wants and docs not want, and
ali work must be done IL accordance
with his views, often Ill direct opposl-
ton to personal tastes: the hurry OF the
work, particularly on daily and weekly
papers, is heavy strain; tie assocla,
tons III reportorial positions are not
always pleasant; advancement is often
slow, as even q person well fitted for the
work is long time obtaining thorough
command OF ms resources. The dlsad-
vantages peculiar to women are not
many. y greater iiDcrality of ideas as !;
rule characteriZes Journalists than OtLcl

I.ife'S Burdens.

\ large part OF life's burdens are self.
imposed and wholly needless. Fears OF
calamities which never happen, q doleful
habit OF looking at the worst, 4 sus-
picious disposition, a jealous turn OF
mind-these are the tyrants that load us
with burdens heavy to bear and needless
TO carry. Ii We should honestly examine
the various burdens of our lives, we
would be surprised to find how many Of
them are OF this character. Not only
may We drop them if We will, but Justice
to Others demands that we should. 4
man or woman habitually unhappy is
essentially selfish, and is always a thorn
in the community. There are enough
crosses and trials in life which must be
borne, without manufacturing artificial
and needless ones; and the more thor
oughly we rid ourselves OF the latter, the
more energy and spirit We can bring to
bear upon the former.

The Wrong - oman.

An amusing incident occurred not
long since at the close OF an evening
meeting at one of our churches. A well
known citizen and his wife attended the
service, going thither as was their Gus
tom in their own vehicle. When the
meeting was over the husband told the
wife to be out at the door so as to be
ready to so home when he came along
with the horse and sleigh. She was
promptly on time and a team came up,
a man held out his hand and helped her
in and drove Off with her. They had
not gone great way when she said: cit
seems to me you got the horse quick:
The man looked at her a moment in
surprise on hearing strange voice, and
exclaimed: Good gracious. have got
the wrong woman" He turned the
horse around and drove back to the
place Of meeting, where an exchange
was made, and he started home once
more with the right woman.-Concord

played national anthem, "Preussenlied'

singing to the music. The Emperor ap-
peared at a window as the procession
was moving past, and bowed, remaining
there a considerable time. The great

THE PRESIDENTIAL BOOM.
Blaine and Sherman Contending for the
Republican Bone.
(Letter to the Cincinnati Enquirer.)

Letter to the Cincinnati Enquirer.)
The play for the Presidential position
has begun early. Sherman will soon be
in the South making speeches, more with
a view to make an impression in his own
political interest than to advance views
calculated to aid the development of the
section he visits.
I think can anticipate Mr.. Sherman's
calculations. If Blaine wants renomi-
nation Sherman believes he can have it
without reaching out his hand. Blaine
wants it, he thinks, only in the event
that he feels assued Of his election. He
Will again take no chances. Sherman
Will come in as 4 commanding quantity
if Blaine should decide not to seek the
nomination. II Blaine attempts to con-
troll the convention in the interest of
candidate of his own choice rather than
himself, Mr.. Sherman Will then an
tagonize him. He will not give way for
Mr.. Allison or anybody else. In short,
Sherman will endeavor to place his can
didacy in such position as to make it
impossible to repeat such deal as re-
suited in the nomination of Garfield.
Mr.. Blaine is now more apprehensive
OF the prohibition than OF the mug
wump vote. In his own State, in New
York, in Ohio, and in the northwestern
States prohibition is growing. The vote,
too, is in political contests becoming
more gregarious. 1t largely draws its
strength from the Republican party, as
does the labor vote from the Democratic
party. In his own mind the problem
now being revolved by Mr.. Blaine is
"Will there be enough votes cast out
side of the Republican party for a pro-
hibition candidate to jeopardize New
York OF any other Republican State?'
II he comes to the conclusion there Will
not be, Mr.. Blaine will be Richmond
in the field.
Mr.. Shermans candidacy this time
means more and looks more portentous
than it ever did before The Camerons,
OF Pennsylvania, Simon and Don, are
allied with it. They are afraid Blaine in
power would cut that wing. They are
for Sherman because OF martial alliances
which binds the house of Sherman with
their own, and because, while they
might not get al they asked from him,
they would never get the cold shoulder.
However, it doubtless is true that ID
Pennsylvania Blaine is stronger than the
Camerons. In Ohio he has heretofore
shown more strength than Sherman.

Before Judge Rea, yesterday morning,
was commenced the suit of John Crime

issue is between Mr.. Crime the holder of
the lien, and p. j. Gardley. who holds a
mortgage on the boat, and the question in
volved is the priority of liens. The attor-
ney for Mr.. Crime holds that the chatteI
mortgage on the boat should have 6been
filed in the Office of the town clerk instead
of in the office of the clerk of the village of
